Masaki Kobayashi's epistemological study of the Samurais' life can't be really meshed with Kurasawa's affirmative depiction. He literally hated how the latter portrayed the Tokugawa period by having such an immense sense of pride in Samurais. Kobayashi thought of them as thugs who tyrannized innocent people, and this was the main theme his whole filmography centered around.

Kobayashi is one of my favorite directors of all time, I loved all the movies I watched by him, but his timeless beauty "Hari-kiri" was and always will be my favorite movie by him, and probably the greatest Japanese movie ever..

Martin McDonagh never fails to leave me speechless. He literally had me in this one, making me re-watch the movie the day after I first watched it, simply because of the complexity of all the characters and the plot itself.

If can sum up the whole movie in one sentence it would be (The possibility of human insanity and choosing malevolence over goodness). And I've actually seen the story from this perspective the first time I watched it, but it took me multiple viewings to grasp what the story is all about.

Domonic's character must be the center of attention in the whole story; He lives a tragic life, searching for love, meaning in a bleak island, he gets beaten by his own dad, yet no one gives a damn about him, the whole island is concerned with a stupid quarrel between two adults, That shows how society exactly works.

I've admired Barry since Dunkirk, He's one of the best actors of his generation and probably with the highest potential. Such an outstanding performance he delivered in this beauty. SPOT ON.

Incredible, entertaining and provoking. An extraordinary clever satire that goes beyond the cinematic aspects of a movie that revolves around a distressing fact that humanity will do anything to doom the planet. One cannot simply ignore the witty way Adam Mckay managed to use the symbolism and how he perfectly condensed it into a one big essence, Which serves a costant reminder that we're facing an extinction crisis that can annihilate the enitre human species.

Don't Look Up is surely one of the best movies I've seen in a while, and I completely loved the way the movie targets the public ignorance and the anti-science movement. Finally, I think there are many Oscar-worthy performances in this movie, due to the phenomenal acting by the whole cast, Especially by Cate and Leo.

Ignore the reviews and go see this one.

4 weeks later and still thinking about the ending, I don't think I'll ever recover from it, I've watched this beauty 2 times so far and it's arguably the movie of the year. I've never thought that Park Chan Wook would dare to deviate from his own theme, which centers on 3 essential elements (Sex, Violence, Plot twist) . Yet he managed to deliver such an extraordinary complex movie with a profound plot that will hit you right to the core. I could literally go on forever talking about how subtle the symbolism is in this movie, it's just pure perfection.

Tang Wei's performance was unbelievably exquisite and probably the female performance of the year.

The accumulated longing for a sequel that filled the heart of every cinema fan over the past decade was sadly demolished by a mediocre shocking movie. I honestly can't believe that we actually waited 13 years for this disappointing sequel. Although I knew for sure before watching it last night that it wouldn't dethrone the first part as the highest grossing movie of all time, or even reach its level of artistic dramatic content.

Avatar: The Way of Water is without any doubts one of the most visually stunning movies you'll ever see on the big screen, with breathtaking scenes that will leave you in disbelief, but the poor narrative made me feel like I was watching some episodes from National Geographic. One thing I learned over the years is that beautiful visuals don't necessarily make a good movie, but rather it enhances the viewer's experience to get the maximum of feelings that the director wants to convey. Unlike the first part, this one has nothing to add the whole avatar story in terms of plot and dramatic emotions, it was nothing but an action film that can even be merged with the first one without even noticing. Even though the first one has a sequence of abrupt events in the first hour, but they actually served the plot that revolves around the human conflict in deciding what's right and wrong. And how can the moral code of someone plays a pivotal role in serious decisions to make.

Is it all bad? Absolutely not, Avatar 2 has some great battle scenes in the water world with all its beautiful creatures, but that's it. Just a shallow beauty with no substance at all.

This is absolutely, unequivocally, unmistakably a surreal cinematic experience which I longed for since an awfully long time. I was overwhelmed and blown away last night although my expectations have skyrocketed due to the positive reviews I had been reading in the past weeks. But thankfully, I wasn't disappointed at all. This masterwork by Matt Reeves is yet another proof why the story of Batman is the greatest comic book story ever. This isn't the usual comic book movie to have fun with, this is a suspense thrilling drama that has many things in common with movies like Se7en and The Usual Suspects than the previous versions of Batman movies, I don't want to spoil the storyline to you by getting into specific details to back up my argument, But this is the detective Batman movie I've always wanted to see with heavy film-noir elements to the story.

Just right when I thought that Jared Leto had probably the greatest transformation in House Of Gucci, Collin Farrel as the penguin in The Batman was literally unrecognizable to the point you'd mistake him for Robert De Niro with that superb acting and delivery of speech. But generally, the whole cast was great, Especially Paul Dano who stole the show at the end. This is probably the greatest cast acting I've seen in years. Ultimately, One simply cannot miss the opportunity to praise the top tier cinematography by Greig Fraser who brilliantly managed to create dark gritty visuals and atmosphere that fits well with the story.

Ops!! I forgot :)) Something In The Way, Mmmm.

There's something so profoundly existentially horrific about the experience I just had with this movie. I mean for a person whose whole existence revolves around music that which defines his life, I found it weirdly vexing to finish the movie that made my bleakness intensifies.

Honestly, I gotta give it to the sound department for the incredible work they did, The sound editing was outstanding to the point you can feel and experience the sound losing. The most surprising thing was the performance by Riz Ahmed who definitely deserves an Oscar for his superb acting.The ending will keep me thinking for days after about the things we take for granted. NO Doubts, For me this is The movie of the year and one of the most astonishing movies I have ever seen.

Well Done Darius It's a hell of a start for your career as a director

Well Well Well, This movie is by far more complex than Inception, It's going to take multiple viewings to truly appreciate the concept of the story. I recommend at least 2 or 3 mandatory viewings, Because there are so many things hidden throughout the 2 hours and half. You need to pay attention and listen closely to the dialogue. The action in the movie was really enjoyable and you can easily notice Nolan's touch in it, Especially in the first scene with that brilliant sequence shot from the cinematographer.

However there are some things I didn't like about this movie. There was so much depth in the story that took an extremely space and even took over some of the main characters development, But generally the movie was great, It's definitely not Nolan's best work but I enjoyed it, I really did.

Seriously the dialogue in this episode is absolutely unreal, I really enjoyed watching this remarkable episode. The river scene was completely breathtaking, I felt like I'm watching a horror film, the show is good so far and I hope it continues this way

There's something called, Critic and there's something called stupidity .. Yes it was an epic battle, the visual effects were amazing and stunning, Ramin Djawadi's soundtrack was unbelievably awesome I really enjoyed the greatest battle ever, but last night's episode had so many plot holes ... Arya could managed to reach the nigh king and ran past the wights, just like that .. and there was no interaction between Bran and the Night King, and btw what does the lord light wants from the night king? what does the night king wants?? 8 seasons to see this?? and btw if there's an Oscar awards for series, red woman should win Best Visual Effects. and let's all take a moment to thank the red woman for helping us see what's going on in the battlefield I could go on forever .. As I said, Great battle, but poor writing

A truly masterpiece. Everything about it is so perfect. the ending made me cry. Without any doubt, one of the greatest tv shows ever

When my friend told me about this TV show, I was like eeeh I won't watch it because the story didn't impress me .. But I changed my opinion later after watching the trailer and also because I wanna learn Spanish. After finishing the two seasons, I can say that It's one of the best series that I have seen lately without any doubt. I loved the characters especially '' Berlin + El Profesor + Nairobi " but Berlin was very special, It's like watching the Spanish version of Joker. You guys should watch it, You won't regret.

I've been a fan of Teen Wolf series since it started and I must admit that I'm absolutely disappointed about the finale episode, and as I can see I think I'm the only one who didn't like it . In fact the whole season was honestly trash . The finale episode was disgrace to the fans, I was hoping to see something better than this . and there are so many questions left unanswered.
